Francona was not very good as an NL manager in his first stop and I'm not sure his brand of "Set it and forget it" managing would play as well in the National League, especially when he doesn't have the endless resources of the Boston Payroll at his disposal.
I like Francona, don't get me wrong. I also like Maddon. But I won't be at all upset if Sandberg's the guy either.
The Cards have every advantage in the world here.
(Now watch them promote Oquendo....{ugh})

I'd love to have Ryno but I'd love to have Oquendo too so wtf do I know.
